To be honest I did not like the questions in the Quiz compitition are are highly sexist, male-centric,and trying to convey a wrong message that history of MSJ is shaped by Rectors/Ministers/ and other priests. Please make the quiz as much as Inclusive. Jesuits are meant to think from the perspective of women, children and working class who play a great role in shaping the history of any institution.
